Live performance of The Shadow The Three Ghosts
Manage episode 449066509 series 2846987
Live Drama - Orson Welles’ radio portrayal of The Shadow, particularly in the episode titled The Three Ghosts, is a standout in classic radio drama. Originally aired on October 31, 1937, this Halloween episode follows the mysterious vigilante, The Shadow (alias Lamont Cranston, played by Welles), as he investigates a series of eerie events involving three supposedly vengeful ghosts haunting an old mansion.
In the story, The Shadow uncovers that the “hauntings” are part of a sinister plot by a group of criminals using superstition and fear to cover up their illegal activities. Using his iconic powers of invisibility and his “clouding men’s minds,” The Shadow reveals the truth and brings the villains to justice.
